Cardiff City 2009-2010 season

The Met Office (useless twats that they are) are saying heavy snow from midday right through till 9.

Will we have to replay it on the fourth round date?

19th is date set aside if it gets played and it's a draw, assume that would be the rescheduled date if it is snowed off
 
DJ telling fans they need to cheer instead of boo.

What I don't think he understands is it's not results that are causing negative reactions.

Instead it's the negative play by the players which makes us negative.

I've seen us applude the team at the end of the match for losing but going for it. No fan however is going to cheer their team whilst they are huddled deep with the ball challenging our net. Which is all our last 45 minutes seem to comprise of lately.

Reality check for DJ and the players. If they want to be lifted by the crowd they need to first lift the crowd through their own efforts.

Here's a very good blog;

about how DJ has forgotten what its like to be a fan

If someone is one of his favourites he'd rather cut off his own arm than leave them out the squad. Even if said player did nothing all game other than take a dump in the centre circle.

Selective blindness personified.
 
obviously, he's not actually the manager at rovers (paul trollope is), just the 'director of football' but it seems that he doesn't actually do much, particularly when it comes to actually doing his job of signing players, overseeing contract negotiations etc. he even scrapped the reserve team. just wondering if this is the same kind of stuff he's been criticised for in the past.

He was manager in 2004/05 when we achieved academy status.

But that was all Sam's doing.

Lennie had fuck all to do with anything except what happened on the pitch and even that was open to debate with Sam around.
 
the match is on tonight, according to our local news, though the pitch looks like it's covered in snow!

anyone know how i can watch s4c in bristol?
 
ah, nice if it's on the FA website. you can get s4c on sky, but i'm on virgin and they only do it in wales i think
 
i'd like you both to lose tonight. let's hope for an energy sapping, entertaining draw that sees you stretched in the league and drop out of the play offs ;)

Game might be on, but there wont be many cardiff fans there, our bus was cancelled half hour before it was due to leave.:mad:

In fairness, at four the roads were fine, by half past it was total chaos.

On the bright side, it could have come in an hour or so later and we could have been stranded the wrong side of the bridge.

Are you S4C-ing it then?

Hope its Malcolm Allen as summariser.

Even the gogs can't understand a word he says.

:D
 
Considering the conditions I think its a good game so far. Doesn't seem to have affected our play at all. Still shit at set pieces and Chopra huffing and puffing but doing fuck all in front of goal!
 
The FA commentator has obviously made his mind up who's going to win.

He said something like "Bristol City v Cardiff City and the prize for winning is a game HERE against Leicester".
